The entire Demon Group was shaken by the explosion.
Outside the window, yellow sand spread out, and a sandstorm was about to erupt.
A powerful and overwhelming mental force surged like a tidal wave from the center of the Demon Group, sweeping rapidly in all directions.
At the same time, a massive dark shadow in the sky descended, resembling an ominous cloud pressing down on them.
"Don't panic, it's just a malfunction with one of our research weapons," Kino quickly activated the full-frequency communication channel, his calm voice echoed in every corner.
As if responding to his command, the yellow sand in the air dispersed in an instant. The powerful mental force also quickly retracted like a receding tide, and the dark shadow in the sky gradually disappeared as though it had never been there.
Everyone's gaze turned towards Harley.
Pamela sighed helplessly and covered her face with her hand.
Gwen's mouth twitched, her expression one of utter disbelief.
Venom gently patted Pamela's shoulder in comfort.
Xi Ze stood silently to the side, preparing his weapon.
The Black Phoenix slightly raised the corner of her mouth and quietly gave Harley a thumbs up.
Gnat's eyes widened, her face written with shock.
"Cool! I absolutely love this weapon!"
Harley, completely unaware of the impending danger, was happily fiddling with the troublesome weapon, clearly enamored with it.
"Like it? I have an even cooler one here."
Kino's face wore a seemingly kind smile as he spoke.
"Really? Where?"
"You'll have to deactivate your transformation first, then I'll give it to you."
"Oh, Shabak!"
As soon as Harley deactivated her transformation, she felt a blur before her eyes, and she was suddenly lying on Kino's lap.
"Little Kiki... Ah!"
Harley's tone immediately changed, and she felt a sharp, penetrating pain in her bottom.
"Who taught you to play with weapons on your own turf? The house was almost destroyed by you just now. Do you know this is my first company, and I haven't even taken back your battle suit?"
Kino grew angrier with each word, and the whip in his hand began to fall like raindrops, landing without pause.
Slap! Slap! Slap!
If I don't teach this brat a lesson now, she'll be a problem later.
This was Xi's soul whip, specifically designed for whipping the soul. Only Basha could withstand this kind of pain.
The motion of the whip left afterimages in the air.
"Ah… my battle suit~ Ah… I can't… it hurts… ahh!"
Harley experienced pain like she'd never felt before.
Boom!
At that moment, a dazzling rainbow shot down from the distant sky like a sword, striking the ground right in front of the Demon Mansion.
Kino's movement stopped, and he slowly lifted his head to look at the sky.
Odin.
Taking advantage of Kino's momentary relaxation, Harley scrambled and rolled to hide behind Pamela.
"Little Red, my bottom hurts so much! Waaah..."
She was crying from the whipping.
"Who told you to fire weapons recklessly?"
"I'm sorry, waaah..."
Demon Mansion Training Room
Xiao Yu, Penny (daughter of Sandman), and Nina (daughter of Magneto)
"Training is so boring. I want to go back and do my homework," Xiao Yu said with a long face, slumped on the ground.
To avoid homework, she had told Uncle Long that she would come to train with Damian.
Uncle Long was now an employee of the Demon Group.
"I'm so tired too," Penny said, her little arms feeling like noodles.
She had been dragged here by Xiao Yu, who promised there would be fun things to do.
"Damian is so strong," Nina remarked, observing Damian, who hadn't taken a break until now.
"Hurry, hurry, are you just playing around these days?"
Hel's voice was cold as she held two iron swords and launched a series of fierce attacks at Damian.
Damian, holding a Tang Dao sword, struggled to defend himself. Compared to when he started, he could at least counterattack a little now.
"I also told you..."
Suddenly, Hel stopped, crouched down, and executed a powerful sweeping kick aimed at Damian's legs.
Damian reacted quickly, leaping into the air, performing a beautiful flip, and in the blink of an eye, he appeared behind Hel.
Before Hel could rise, the sharp Tang Dao was already at her throat.
"Don't just focus on the opponent's weapon, Teacher Hel," Damian said, panting but with a victorious smile on his face.
"That's true, but sometimes you can't forget your weapon," Hel said, her eyes narrowing as she noticed only one sword remained in her hand.
Bang!
An iron sword fell from the air and struck Damian's arm. The Tang Dao dropped with a loud clatter.
Hel's quick reflexes allowed her to catch the sword mid-air and swiftly press it against Damian's neck.
"This tactic isn't bad, but it has a blind spot in your line of sight. In the future, don't use it. If you face someone quick, they can slice you in half mid-air."
Hel's tone was serious, but a trace of recognition for Damian's potential flashed in her eyes.
"Understood."
Damian lowered his head in defeat. He had lost again.
The Magic Weapon team members watching the match sighed.
"Lost again."
"Couldn't the Teacher Hel go easy on him once?"
"Stop complaining, Damian only lasted 8 minutes. Give her some credit."
They never really thought Damian would win; they were just betting on how long he could last.
Hel's lips twitched as she faced the group of seasoned veterans.
"Today's training will be extended. The bottom ten will have a week of hellish training."
Will, who had just been bragging, immediately paled. He was often at the bottom in physical training, sometimes second to last.
"How about an unexpected guest or an enemy?"
A teammate nearby sneered.
"Which idiot would dare come and cause trouble at the Demon Group? If we really get a 'brave one,' I'll wash everyone's socks for a week, but how could that happen..."
Before he could finish his sentence, a deafening "Boom!" sounded, and a blinding pillar of light, like a meteor from another world, exploded outside the window.
The light instantly illuminated the entire training room.
"No way, there really is someone looking for trouble?"
The teammate who had spoken froze, his eyes wide with shock.
"We heard what you said. Don't try to back out of it."
"FK..."
The Magic Weapon team members reacted quickly, jumping out of their seats and grabbing weapons, rushing towards the door like a swarm of bees.
For them, the appearance of enemies was the perfect excuse to avoid training.
Hel didn't bother with them. She walked to the window and stared at the figure holding a hammer.
The Rainbow Bridge!
A few of the younger ones gathered at the window to watch the spectacle.
Thor looked at a head sticking out from a building and shouted,
"Hey, I'm Thor Odinson, sent by the All-Father Odin, to seal the source of the disaster, the Goddess of Death, Hel. Do you know where she is? I have urgent matters to attend to."
The people of the Demon Group exchanged confused looks, wondering where this fool had come from.
Flint opened the security room and walked out. This wasn't an accident, was it?
The Magic Weapon team members also came out to watch. They were just looking for an excuse to avoid training, and Flint could handle this.
"Whoever you're looking for, get out of here. Or you'll regret it," Flint said.
Quote of the Chapter:"Sometimes, the most unexpected things are the most important, like a hammer from the sky."
